The College Board adds Adversity Score to the SAT Exam!

The formal name of this score is Overall Disadvantage Level.

​

The new adversity score will reflect the applicant's Family income, environment and educational differences.

​

The aim is to level the playing field in the extremely competitive college admissions process in the US.

​

Fifty (50) schools have already been part of this beta test in 2018.

​

The "Environmental Context Dashboard" will show the Adversity Score alongside the student's SAT score.
